Management of XEN Gel Stent Exposure with Conjunctival Erosion via Rotational Conjunctival Flap and Amniotic Membrane Transplantation-A Case Report
Conclusions: This case report highlights the importance of careful examination, including slit-lamp examination, the Seidel test, and AS-OCT, to identify accurate anatomical positioning and to monitor ocular surface changes after XEN gel stent implantation with MMC or 5-FU. Combination treatment (rotational conjunctival flap and amniotic membrane transplantation) may be relatively safe for persistent XEN gel stent exposure.PMID:36363538 | DOI:10.3390/medicina58111581
